You can’t be too sure of what you’ll find at the Chico Museum, in this distinctive old 1904 Carnegie Library building, since the museum offers both permanent and rotating exhibits, but one thing that’s certain is that it’s always interesting.

On permanent display are artifacts from Chico’s Chinese Temple, 19th century musical instruments, and other historical artifacts and photos of Chico and the surrounding area. Lectures, slide shows, and seminars are offered.

Call for a calendar and newsletter.

The 28-acre Patrick Ranch is Chico’s newest historical attraction, reflecting the agricultural, cultural, social, and economic history of the North Sacramento Valley. Annual events there include an old-fashioned Threshing Bee & Antique Equipment Show held in June, complete with draft horses and vintage farm equipment. AutumnFest, with free children’s activities, farmhouse tours, an animal exhibit is held there in October­—plus you can pick your own pumpkins. The ranch has become a popular spot for school tours, as well as for weddings.
